The federal gasoline engine exhaust system consists of engine exhaust manifolds, exhaust pipes, catalytic converter(s), extension pipe (if needed), exhaust heat shields, muffler and exhaust tailpipe , ,
The California emission vehicles exhaust system also contains the above components as well as mini catalytic converters added to the exhaust pipe.
Exhaust System 5.7L Engine - Typical
The exhaust system must be properly aligned to prevent stress, leakage and body contact. Minimum clearance
between any exhaust component and the body or frame is 25.4 mm (1.0 in.). If the system contacts any body panel,
it may amplify objectionable noises from the engine or body.

CAUTION: Avoid application of rust prevention compounds or undercoating materials to exhaust system
floor pan exhaust heat shields. Light overspray near the edges is permitted. Application of coating will
result in excessive floor pan temperatures and objectionable fumes.
The diesel engine exhaust system consists of an engine exhaust manifold, turbocharger, exhaust pipe, resonator,
extension pipe, catalytic converter, muffler and exhaust tailpipe.
The exhaust system must be properly aligned to prevent stress, leakage and body contact. The exhaust components should be kept a minimum of 25.4 mm (1.0 in.) away from the body and frame. If the system contacts any
body panel, it may amplify objectionable noises from the engine or body.

CONVERTER-CATALYTIC
DESCRIPTION
WARNING: THE NORMAL OPERATING TEMPERATURE OF THE EXHAUST SYSTEM IS VERY HIGH. THEREFORE, NEVER WORK AROUND OR ATTEMPT TO SERVICE ANY PART OF THE EXHAUST SYSTEM UNTIL IT
IS COOLED. SPECIAL CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN WHEN WORKING NEAR THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER.
THE TEMPERATURE OF THE CONVERTER RISES TO A HIGH LEVEL AFTER A SHORT PERIOD OF ENGINE
OPERATION TIME.
CAUTION: DO NOT remove spark plug wires from plugs or by any other means short out cylinders. Failure
of the catalytic converter can occur due to a temperature increase caused by unburned fuel passing
through the converter.
The stainless steel catalytic converter body is designed to last the life of the vehicle. Excessive heat can result in
bulging or other distortion, but excessive heat will not be the fault of the converter. If unburned fuel enters the converter, overheating may occur. If a converter is heat-damaged, correct the cause of the damage at the same time
the converter is replaced. Also, inspect all other components of the exhaust system for heat damage.
Unleaded gasoline must be used to avoid contaminating the catalyst core.
50 State emission vehicles incorporate two mini catalytic converters located after the exhaust manifolds and before
the inline catalytic converter.
OPERATION
The catalytic converter captures and burns any unburned fuel mixture exiting the combustion chambers during the
exhaust stroke of the engine. This process aids in reducing emissions output.
REMOVAL
3.7L/4.7L ENGINE
1. Raise and support vehicle.
2. Saturate the bolts and nuts with heat valve lubricant. Allow 5 minutes for penetration.
4. Remove LH exhaust pipe to manifold bolts (2),

INSPECTION
Look at the stainless steel body of the converter, inspect for bulging or other distortion that could be a result of
overheating. If the converter has a heat shield attached make sure it is not bent or loose.
If you suspect internal damage to the catalyst, tapping the bottom of the catalyst with a rubber mallet may indicate
a damaged core.
